Then you can spend years that you already spend on fixing something more serious

visual willow
#

And that aren't already fixable ingame

#

Unfixable gamebreaking bugs > fixable gamebreaking bugs > unfixable minor bugs > fixable minor bugs

still forum
#

You can also mod the game to add content

#

And pretend that problem of bad dlcs like dod or tfv dissapear

#

But that does not justify the devs to not fix it

#

You can fix basically every in game mechanic or lacking content this way

visual willow
#

Yeah but most aren't as easy as a singular console command

#

So those are pretty f-- obvious low priority issues

still forum
#

Again

visual willow
#

Also, even mods can't fix some issued

still forum
#

You start from the most little thing

visual willow
#

Like the unit teleporting bug

still forum
#

And then go on the harder one

still forum
#

I would rather have 100 minor bugs fixed than a major one delayed by 1 day

#

That's how job overall looks

#

You start on the simplest stuff

#

And then focus on the more complicated one

#

And so on

#

Overall if you make something then it is not supposed to be fixed by user

visual willow
#

I would much rather have an actual issue be fixed, then 10 things noone will care for except someone that whines because they were oh so forced to press a few extra buttons

still forum
#

And the simpler one cumulate

#

Whoops czechoslovakia just accepted sudetenland even if you are allied with them

#

Whoops special focus for soviet union to core sakhalin doesnt core it

#

Whoops option to core lithuania as fascist poland through the puppet option doesnt work

#

Whoops romania gives up bessarabia while being at war

#

And so on

#

They totally break immersion and gameplay while are a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT easier to fix

visual willow
#

Yup, completely agree that they should fix these minor, self fixable issues before fixing an issue that would completely remove your major ally with no way for even them to fix it!!! Sounds totally fair

visual willow
still forum
#

Play for the ai

#

Generally games are supposed to work without having to use cheats

#

Do i also have to tag on enemy and design them a better templates?

#

And then tag back?

#

Should i also tag to ai to make serious offensives?

#

Where does the player need of fixing the game by cheats ends?

visual willow
#

Like with missing cores

still forum
#

Oh interesting

#

I will note that

#

I hope every next dlc will be like this

#

Cores will be random

#

Ethiopia will get cores on antarctica by forming aksum

visual willow
#

Man i really hope you won't ever play another game, you'll genuinly die when you see the smallest issue

#

And you likely won't even be able to fix that then

still forum
#

Well i play rome total war and it doesnt really have such issues

#

Also age of wonders

#

And that's only strategic games

#

I will not go to list every game that dont have to be fixed by player that i've played sorry

visual willow
#

Yeah, cause most games can't even be fixed by players KEKW

still forum
#

No because those small bugs are fixed after first weeks after release

visual willow
#

Yeah and those teams also seem to just work more on the game

#

Hoi4 really feels like it's run by a small crew that only comes around for the dlc

#

So they "can't afford" in essence to fix minor "problems"

still forum
#

Sounds like company problem because they have all the resources to run a proper studio

#

For top popular strategy game

visual willow
#

But not one that focuses on making sure a few pixels on the sprites of the soldier models are aligned correctly

#

Which is just as pressing of a matter as missing a few cores

still forum
#

I remember when i complained about bugs in rome remastered and basically all got fixed

#

For hoi

#

I dont remember any

#

Ngl

visual willow
#

Ok

#

Welcome to the world system of profit

#

Those games seem to be made by studios who care more about players then their monry

#

Cause the hoi4 management REALLY doesn't care KEKW

still forum
#

It doesnt really justify them

visual willow
#

Maybe now they do, depends on what the second set of gamedevs will do

visual willow
#

Pdx is a corporation

Corporations do what corporations do

They still have a dude

Years after release

Who help people on modding

Btw isn't finnish monarchy the worst monarchist path in the game?

Paradox just added trait for a leader that dont have portrait

visual willow
#

uhm ok

hollow lion
#

And AI portrait spies

solid gyro
#

Why would they not give him a Portrait despite the Agents

#

Is it like a legal thing?

hollow lion
#

It could be theres no good source

#

Or Paradox just doesnt wanna spend extra on artist time

solid gyro
#

True

#

I'd sacrifice an agent for a leader though

#

He dies in 42 so

#

Devs never replied to my comment:(

still forum
#

Poland is example for not accurate states due to game mechanics

leaden magnet
#

but these are islands with their correct shape and not arbitrarily drawn borders that match different periods of time

#

If they are going to focus on Canada, I'd expect at least some attention to detail. Perhaps it will be rectified upon release, after all it is a simple dev diary.

still forum
#

They didnt add any vp on north

#

And probably yukon will still have 10 people

visual willow
#

accurate state borders suck anyways, they don't matter at all except for country borders

leaden magnet
#

If Quebec is released then it becomes a country border, do you understand my point?

Still found it funny they bother making a trait but didnt bother making a portrait

frosty oak
#

That’s fair lol

#

I did think that was weird none the less

#

I love how our favorite scary man now has a scary trait to go with it

solid gyro
#

They just colorize and draw over chosen photos

#

They aren't necessarily done from scratch

hollow lion
#

Also notable is that they dont use the right background apparently

#

According to our main artist

solid gyro
#

Wdym?

hollow lion
#

The brown background of the portraits isnt consistent with other spy portraits apparently

solid gyro
#

Oh yeah

#

It isn't

#

But

#

The background is consistent between each portrait in the diary

#

Ao it's probably artist choice

still forum
#

Looking at some

#

They look pretty much as just inspired

#

Old portraits especially

still forum
#

Nsb improved portraits quality by significiant marigin

#

But they dont look as just recoloured

daring forge
# hollow lion Also notable is that they dont use the right background apparently

They might still be wip, the background would probably be the least priority since it’s just a layer you slap on - easier to work with whatever bg you prefer then, and I don’t really get the ai claim - like they might be upscaled using some kind of tool but they look like painted over photos (and it’s not hard to find the image they based them on with a simple google search either)

still forum
#

Ignacy Mościcki is example of modern portrait looks clearly as not just recoloured

#

Karl Albrecht as well

#

Which makes me believe that rest is also made from scratch

Is Bolivia getting its own focus tree?

Will chilean army get a morale bonus for never losing a war? And will argentina get a causus belli to invade chile due to the beagle dispute?

The Swedish King likes Germany but doesn't offer to give back North Schleswig? I believe he would have offered that in exchange for good relations with Germany. They made the State but hasn't done much with it. Maybe give Sweden a decision they can do after they've done Danish Alignment to give Germany North Schleswig in exchange for a non-aggression pact and good relations. Maybe also give Germany a core there aswell, if they accept

#

If Germany is Democratic or Monarchist.

#

I still wonder when they will remaster the Ideologies. Non-Aligned is a shit ideology that just feels like a handicap. Can't expand Austria-Hungary early due to low world tension

#

Something else that would be interesting to see is that if France enters a Civil war Germany can seize Alsace-Lorraine via a decision. If Germany is Fascist or Monarchist. It would put more Pressure on France to not fall into a civil war.

#

Germany would very likely be able to pull that off as France is in disarray and would be busy fighting itself. You could argue they can't due to the Maginot Line. I would agree if The French army wasn't busy with itself. Few troops would be on that border as they would be busy fighting the civil war

stiff walrus
#

at this point there are so many monarchist countries that they deserve their own ideology instead of being grouped with everything else

fervent prairie

I would love a different idelogy called "Monarchist" because how do you exactly difference it if you do not know?

still forum
#

4 ideologies are very outdated

#

And with sweden they already started working on what if you dont want to join the war

#

Even with chile they tried to make staying democratic more interesting

#

Giving you a lot more potential choices unlocked through choosing specific leaders in elections

How's that paradox fix barely any bugs?

reminder how broken is the state of 2 dlc ago content

They did give a national spirit for Austria-Hungary, but that doesn't really help if you still need high world tension.

fervent prairie
#

I funnily enough found a new bug when playing German Empire. If the Czechs are a monarchist puppet of Poland. Austria, Hungary and Czech can't form Austria-Hungary through Germany's Rekindle Imperial Sentiment.

#

Or it happened but because Hungary was capitulated it didn't work. As Otto is the leader of Hungary for some reason. And the game believes it's been reformed. When infact it hasn't

#

Yep. The game thinks it's been reformed. When it hasn't

all of it combined is only 80m

so like not sure what Argentina or Chile players would do if theyw ere just stuck not really expanding beyond each other

#

Atleast for cores

frosty oak

Brazil is def the most generic of all the trees
Chile undeniably has the coolest tree
Argentina seems like its gonna be good
Hype as hell for Paraguay and Uruguay, mostly Paraguay tho

Specifically can’t wait for Mapuche Chile

I wonder how much longer until paradox lets YouTubers start making videos on early releases? We are only 2 weeks away from release

still forum
#

didnt check dev diary yet

solid gyro
harsh hull
#

"The Italian-Brazilian Partition of Africa" is by far the most powerful-sounding focus (though probably not by gameplay terms)

#

But that Brazil is getting content at all is nice, and with its industrial potential, having more a more "generic" tree leaves it more open-ended to do what the player wants

solid gyro
harsh hull
#

One path at least can demand Portuguese submission, looks like

#

No word yet on how the Portuguese tree will be changed, if at all, to account for Brazil content though

#

Man, it's funny to consider that Portugal is the 4th largest Portuguese-speaking nation in the world

#

Granted, Portuguese isn't the majority of 2nd and 3rd place, but it's still a decent percentage

still forum

Paradox dont touch old countries

frosty oak

#

I never said anything was necessarily worse or bad even
Just the Brazil tree feels like it’s pretty generic bog standard cookie cutter for hoi nations

#

Argentina feels like that but fancier

#

Chile feels like it’s a bit more wacky and maybe a little more fresh

#

And Paraguay is def the wackiest
Uruguay feels like it’s gonna be closer to simple like Iceland

viscid pond
#

Ok so I was wondering right, will the new dlc bring with it a new game mechanic or are the focus trees the only thing that will be added to the game?

#

If it was said before then i probably missed it

floral cradle
#

Brazil is more unique in that regard

floral cradle
#

like with BftB

#

this is the secondary dev team working on this pack, Paradox announced that the main team will focus on other aspects of the game while this dev team will be mainly for side content, such as country packs

floral cradle
#

im not saying they shouldn't, they defo should, but I can understand the hassle involved in there

viscid pond
#

but thanks

#

not like that'll stop me from buying it but still

I am perfectly fine with country packs

burnt scroll
#

I’m curious do you think the devs will get rid of all americas guarantees for the dlc

frosty oak
#

They did

#

It’s been replaced with a Monroe Doctrine national spirit for all American nations

#

Now when a nation without the national spirit attacks a nation with the spirit then the US gets an event popup letting them join the war

visual willow
#

ngl the US would 100% intervene if a ussr-germany alligned nation where to conqour stuff

#

but that's what guarentees are for

burnt scroll
visual willow
frosty oak
#

What? I have never had that happen

#

Yeah, if you are an American nation then you never get attacked for attacking another American nation

#

Ditto for any country like that, if you are guaranteed by the French, and attack another nation guaranteed by the French, then the French won’t attack you

burnt scroll
#

Really I mean I swear that has happened before but it’s has been a long time since I’ve actually played in the Americas since I thought I couldn’t expand at all because of the us

visual willow
#

maybe a CW removes it

frosty oak
#

Maybe that was before I played, I started playing hoi4 around Waking The Tiger

burnt scroll
#

Wait you know what I remember why I was annoyed by it so much it’s because I tried to play as Hawaii but I couldn’t get more man power since I would have needed to either invade china with japan or go to war with us because I invaded Costa Rica or something in Central America

It's strong but you can't fight thr USSR alone

#

And your divs are like 10x stronger

#

The only path that can somehow compete with fascist are commies due to more cores while also unlocking higher conscription laws etc

#

And giving sapmi territories for free

But that's it

Very weird balance

Where fascist do nie exact same thing as historical one but are better at every single thing

I've done the Fascist path, it's strong but not the strongest

Also more content for the us

solid gyro

Yeah

#

They gotta add extra stuff for the US in intervening against South American Nations

#

as even with Ecuador the US did not like how they were making deals with Italy for equipment

#

It'd add an extra layer of challenge for swapping ideaologies or invading neighbor

#

Imo a good idea is to have something similar to Ethiopia's war escalation where if Argentina and Brazil were fighting they'd slowly receive more and more support from a given side until the conflict gets embroiled into WW2

#

With an event like "Argentina formally signs the Tripartite pact" or "Brazil allows foreign expeditions"

don't all have to be high quality divisions, you can have some weaker defensive inf with only support arty and engineers

G for Germany: An extended Focus Tree for Germany with Communist Way, because Germany can not be made Communist with the Focus Tree (Switzerland too). Also, the attack on Europe in fascism should be made more historic, if the game wants to be as accurate as possible. The AI is attacking the Benelux countries first, instead of Scandinavia, which is ahistorical.

L for Luxembourg: A focus tree for Luxembourg, please.

I for Ireland: A focus tree for Ireland, please.

B Belgium: A focus tree for Belgium, please.

For Luxembourg, perhaps only a small focus tree, as in Uruguay and Paraguay. That Luxembourg in alternative history offers itself as a subject or ally of other states in order to be safe from neighboring states.

For example, Luxembourg as part of the Maginot Line, so that the Ardennes offensive becomes a little more difficult.

South east Asia update with Siam, Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysian. Focus tree and add French Indochina as a new country with a focus tree. The 3 dominions PIM should focus on becoming independent especially Indonesia. Malaysia doesn’t need much of any at all. Philippines and French Indochina could be a bit focused on threat from Japan if they go the fascists path. French Indochina could be about loyalty to France or too supporting Vietnamese rebels with Will launch a rebellion along with Laos and Cambodia.

I hardly believe that
I mean, it's one thing to gobble up a small state by a much larger one, that's OK I suppose; but it's just that parts of the borders from medium-sized states like Ceará, São Paulo and Paraná are in completelly wrong places, they could have been drawn a lot better, the game wouldn't be impacted by that...
